I'm jealous, I'm missing cooking. We had run out of home made bread so bought 2 rolls to make up for lunch. Not cheap and absolutely revolting.
We head home tomorrow. We're having fun in Albany today. 

Suzanne did you use pastry or bread dough for your scrolls. I love the idea.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

They would be really nice suzanne.

I was given some over-ripe plums by the RN today so I came home and made a batch of Isi's plum liqueur.  I've frozen the pulp in tablespoon quantities for smoothies.

I did a trial run of Thermofun's Cheese crackers today to see how long they'll stay crisp.  She says 3-5 days (if they last that long LOL) but I want them to stay crispy for longer than that so I'll try not to open them every day and eat a few.  They are fiddly to make but are worth it as they are delicious little morsels.

After resting the pastry I cut the ball in half to make rolling out easier. I made the shapes using a 4 cm round cutter and once the shape was cut I pressed it with my fingers to make it a little thinner as I believe the thinner they are the crisper  they will cook up. I ended up with 50 biscuits and cooked them for 12 minutes, left them on the tray to cool before placing on a wire rack.  Sesame seeds optional, just press them on once the rounds have been placed onto the baking tray.

See the recipe here - http://thermofun.com/cheese-crackers-recipe/

They look tasty Judy. All I've done today is make dinner and prepare some of Katie's overnight SD.
